mooli thepla recipe with step by step photos – mooli theplas are flat breads made with whole wheat flour, white radish (mooli) and spices.

theplas are light, quick and nutritious snack. though most of the time we prefer methi thepla but on ocassions i do make thepla with different veggies. i have shared a variation of thepla recipe made with lauki or bottle gourd here – lauki thepla recipe.

you can make mooli theplas as a breakfast, a quick snack or even pack for tiffin box or lunch box. theplas remain soft so you can have them any time of the day. especially if you are working then theplas come as a big rescue since they can be made quickly and are very easy to prepare.

these mooli theplas taste good and one cannot make out that they are made from radish (mooli). so its great to make these for your loved ones, especially the fussy eaters. addition of mooli makes thepla more nutritious and healthy. another flat bread recipe i make with mooli is this punjabi mooli paratha recipe.

you can apply oil or ghee on the theplas. adding besan flour gives a nice nutty flavor to theplas. we like the flavor of besan but if you don’t prefer then skip it. mostly theplas are served with pickle, curd or aam chunda or any veggie. we love to have warm theplas with hot cup of masala chai.

if you are looking for more such recipes the do check aloo paratha, besan cheela, missi roti, paneer paratha, gobi paratha and onion paratha recipe.
